STRUCTURE AND FEES
We teach two five-month sessions
per year:
Fall session:
September to January - Dues $135
Spring session
February to June - Dues $135
New members add a one time
fee of $20 for music
Returning member fee is $135.
Should extenuating circumstances
force you to withdraw from the choir part way through a term please
contact our manager to discuss a credit for a future session.
We have a mother/daughter
(up to age 21) rate available for anyone interested. The daughter should
be old enough to stay focused through a two-hour practice. Daughters
pay 1/2 the regular fee.
You will receive a set of
practice CD's when you register. The lyrics are available for printing
on the website. We send out a call for preregistration cheques in August
and January so that we can get a head start on updating our membership
lists.
We are officially off for
the months of July and August.
We often have performances throughout the summer.
We have a number of "Snowbirds" in our choirs and other lucky
souls who are able to travel for extended periods of time. Like any
other membership (think YMCA) we do not pro-rate fees for this reason.
(This is why we have two sessions.) Just take your music with you and
practice while away. We do not take attendance, it is up to you to make
sure you keep up to date. We will consider individual cases where the
absence is due to illness or family problems. If you make a late start
in the session your fees will be pro-rated.
Our choirs will occasionally hold a practice at a long-term care facility.
There is nothing exceptional about these outings (apart from bringing
a whole lot of joy to the residents!)--they are regular practices, which
have just had a change of venue.
